CREAMY CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS

iunie 21, 2017

Very creamy and absolutely delicious, this creamy chicken with mushrooms is one of my favorite chicken recipes. It's a very tasty combination of flavors, tender chicken and creamy mushroom sauce.
It's also quick and easy to make and it's a great choice for lunch or for dinner, even in week days when you don't have too much time to cook.
To prepare this recipe I used frozen mushrooms because I had some leftovers into the freezer. You can also use fresh button mushrooms.

You can serve this delicious creamy chicken with mushrooms with polenta, potatoes or homemade bread.

If you use fresh button mushrooms, you have to prepare them first. Wash the mushrooms and chop the into small or medium pieces. Set aside.
Cut the chicken breast into medium pieces and place it into a lightly greased non-stick frying pan. Season with salt and pepper. Fry the chicken on both sides until golden brown. Set aside

Finely chop the onions and place it into a skillet with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions turns glossy. Add the chicken and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add the chopped mushrooms and continue to cook until the mushrooms leave water.
In a small bowl combine 3 teaspoons of flour and 50ml water. Pour this mixture into the skillet and stir to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper.

Add the cream and stir to incorporate. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until thickens. With 2 minutes before turning off the heat, add the crushed garlic.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped fresh dill.

Serve this delicious creamy chicken with mushrooms warm, with your favorite garnish or with homemade bread.
